turbo

Hi All, I recently got an ECU stage 1 remap for my Audi A3 saloon. 2013 plate and it has done 53,000 miles. BHP went from 138 to 170, and torque from 250 to 300 - so about 20% increase. I won't name the company yet but they seem to be a big company, and part of what they call the 'Quantum...

Hi guys, I'm happy to say I've just became an owner of my first turbo car (1998 Mk4 GTI), it has an AGU engine thats why I'm posting on an Audi forum (same engine as the A3). I've done some research all over forums for what to do to get more power. I'm aiming for over 200 ill be happy with 215...

I have a bkd pd140 with a hybrid gt1756 Would this bolt on to my brd pd170? Are the heads different? Would the turbo cope?

Hey there guys. So my car seems to be lacking any boost or push above 3,200RPM when doing a full throttle pull in third gear. It struggles to redline. I can hold it there in third with my foot to the floor down the dual carriage way and it just cannot do it. Lower down it comes on early and...

hello, I had a strange experience earlier today - while driving up a hill my power suddenly seemed to drop, and from that point the engine felt very sluggish - I realised that it was because the turbo wasn't doing what it should be! I was doing about 2500 revs on a moderate incline, hadn't been...

Solid lifters and valve springs for making power at high rpm 9000+rpm. They'll work for any 5 valve engine, turbo, supercharged or naturally aspirated. You'll need additional components to achieve that rpm - mech cams, rods. I have a kit for 6 cylinders, you'll need additional for a V8 or less...

Hi, I have a 2007 2.0t BUL and when the turbo kicks in it sounds different and has not much of a kick. With a diagnostic scanner this code came up. I've changed the dv and smoked tested and found no leaks. Does this mean the turbo is going bad? What's the best way to diagnose it? Thanks

Hi guys, as some of you will know from previous post, I had poor figure from my stage 2+ Apr + RFD v3.4 map 335bhp & 368ftplb I'm getting a new turbosmart actuator fitted towards end of month as my tuner has narrowed it down to that being at fault What kind of boost pressure is normal for...

I can hear what sounds like a boost leak coming from the solenoid block, i cant pinpoint any other leak and had a smoke test done. Mpg gone down n loss on power. Done mr muscle on the turbo, actuator works fine, what could it be?

Would oil residue in boost pipes cause turbo to fail? Been told a full Intercooler flush and clean is needed after swapping a turbo? Didnt on mine and any other pd engine ive had, when i swapped the turbo the car was jacked up on a tilt and both intercooler pipes was undone and abit of oil came...

Hey, I thought it would be a good idea to share my experience. I've bought Audi A6 C7 3.0 TDI 204 HP 2014 CLAA (S-Tronic DL501). The reason why I choose 204 HP version over 245 HP was that I had a better equipped car for less money. After some time, I felt that there is a lack of power in the...
